I went into this expecting slice-of-life litrpg, with a strong emphasis on comedy/silliness. I mean, the premise of this whole book is “a quest to find a load of bread.” I got everything I expected… and some. The book started out GREAT. I’m talking, really good. It was burning quickly, but not super quick. The..
incredible story. Characters developed in such a beautiful way. so much growth and personal development from every character.
Review from The Grand Game, Book 1 →
I almost dropped the book because the beginning was such a slow start. I am so glad I didn’t and I now understand why it’s at the top of so many peoples recommendations list. It’s unique and the man character is a perfect blend of relatable and reckless to keep you interested.
Not what I expected when I started the story but I’m not mad. Great character development and narrator was great at portraying the characters
I was utterly wrecked by this story. It was beautifully written. I want more stories set in this world
Review from EMP: Return of the Wild West: The Complete Series →
Not recommended. This is the first I’ve read from this author. I’ll sample another, but very disappointed.
This book feels like it is for a target audience that isn’t me. The character development felt linear and bland.

The beginning is bland..
Review from Dungeon Devotee →
The character development, world building, pacing, and pros are all very enjoyable. Royal Road really produced some stars, this is as good as “Mother of All Learning”
Too slow for me…. Details upon details about the road, landscape, packing a vehicle, holstering a gun… but almost no action. I wanted to stick around but I just can’t. Need more action for me, life is too short.

This book not only kept me wanting to read more but it also had me emotionally invested for every main character. Loved this read and would hope ML Wang finds the inspiration to continue this stand alone into a series.
